Weāve lowered the āisolationā time to seven days for the breakthrough vaccinated cases. And going outside for a walk or doing some food shopping (hence isolation being in quotes) is considered fine if mild to no symptoms as long as a mask is worn. The only worry is people spending considerable time indoors with groups of unmasked people - like isolate from that.
One doc, my actual boss on all this, basically said sheās whatever about Omicron. Itās very infectious but not causing many issues and the incubation period is short. Covid could be burning itself out . I have no evidence of this or any link to point to, it was just said on a call. But her and this other dude George are the leading infectious disease experts at UCSF/SFDPH and both raised the alarm bells when needed so Iām inclined to trust their opinions.
